I’ve said for years that everything liberals do is to increase their chances of getting laid. Support homosexual agenda and marriage. Strongly support trans freak agenda. Promote promiscuity. Devalue family values and morals. Sustain welfare state. I could go on.

I am starting to wonder if any of these accusations are revenge rather than harassment.

Where does one go to have their good name restored after a false claim?

At this point it seems it is bordering on extortion for pay off.

The goal of a guy’s advances should be to convince the woman to be attracted to him. Right now is a bad time for men to be making crude, unwanted advances toward women. But “crude”, “unwanted” ... some women might love that.

It's not something that a gentleman should ever presume. That kind of thing should require permission and be undoubtedly consensual and private. You don't use a flamethrower to light a candle.

“It’s not something that a gentleman should ever presume”

Acting like a gentleman or being a gentleman in real life is no way to make it in show business these days.

Being a newsreader or journalist shouldn’t ever be considered “show business.”

...described Halperin as, without consent, pressing an erection against their bodies while he was clothed.

Is there an ABC form for this?

stories of harassment shared with CNN range in nature from propositioning employees for sex to kissing and grabbing one’s breasts against her will.

Also rubbing his little woodie against them, willy-nilly, which is known to cause women to line up outside an office door, hoping only for a little--yes, that word again--of same.

even a 94 year old president can be accused of “assault” for putting his hand on a woman’s bum!

What exactly is the age limit? Does one apply for a card, as with AARP?

Gee, where have I been? About 40 years in work force including the “Mad Men” era and never saw/heard of any of this crap. I think most of what we hear is a figment of ill imagination.

Different experience totally. Rarely had a job where something wasn’t attempted EVEN IN SWITZERLAND where the real sheep are bolder than the men. My poor shy Swiss boss there called me in for some official reason and said to me in English (we spoke only German normally) “Foxy Lady.” I made a face and he said, in German, “Don’t they say that in America?” And I said “Not at work they don’t!” Poor shy innerschweizer married man, he may have been traumatized by his big try. I felt bad for h8m, lol.

Only one boss I had for a very short time went too far literally, trying to dictate I dress inappropriately for real. I was out of there in 2 Days.

I’m sure stuff went on but just wasn’t made a big deal of. Not being a woman I guess I’m not the one to judge.

If you think putting a hand on a someone’s derriere is sexual assault, I can’t help you.

Okay. So grabbing a little ass is fine.

But according to your posts of just a few days ago, if a man makes a joke about a woman, that’s an unacceptable offense.

I’ll try to keep that straight if we are ever introduced.

There is no comparison between Bill Cosby and Elder Bush allegations

Not even remotely

Old man Bushs touches are just silly geezer in a wheelchair fumbling

He touched my upper thigh or butt

Cosby raped women unconscious on roofies

What about Chris Dodd and he and Teddy’s waitress DP?

That’s the urban legend

You seem to be a bit of a dullard.

Endless posts from bitter divorced guys who denigrate American women on a regular basis, post disgusting remarks about American women on this supposedly conservative site while lauding the sexual prowess of dumb but acquiescent Vietnamese women, is what I object to. That it is American women who contribute money to this site and yet have to put up with this increasingly awful stuff is what I object to.

That is very different from an obviously old man who is either beginning to suffer from dementia or, at the least, has lost his filter. He did not “sexually assault” anyone and if you or others think he has, we are on a slippery slope to hell.

You used to be light-hearted, funny and sharp.

You are turning into a biddy and, like Nancy Pelosi, can't quite seem to keep your querulous pronouncements straight.

Imagine if it were Bill Clinton in a wheelchair who was grabbing these women by the ass...you would leap to his defense too?

Or is it just that when you "met" Grandpa Bush, as you are so proud to point out, you enjoyed it too much to complain?
